My friend and I just went to El rodeo and our waitress, Diana, was amazing. She was kind and attentive and funny. She is the best server here!!! Food was also
So yummy.

This is no longer El Rodeo, it is now Mi Cancun. The menu is smaller, the portions are small and the food is not as good. Very disappointed with the change.

The restaurant isn’t El Redo anymore it’s now Mi CanCun. The menu completely changed prices are higher, and the food doesn’t even taste the same anymore. It gotten worse and when El rodeo their food was the best but now since these guys took over, it’s bad. also, they expect you to pay with cash if you pay with card, they are going to charge you more.

Really good Mexican food and lovely service. We got a pitcher of strawberry margaritas to share and got about 9 glasses (3-ish per person) out of it - a great deal. I got the birria tacos, and they were excellent. I could eat the salsa de birria with a spoon. It's flavorful and spicy! Can't believe I don't come here more often. Will definitely be back soon.

I have lived on this side of town for a little over a year but somehow haven’t made it here. The fajita taco salad with mixed chicken and steak was absolutely delicious. Huge portion for the price. Will definitely be back to try their margaritas!

El Rodeo is my go to place when I am craving Mexican food. There is usually not a wait and the food comes out quickly (<15 minutes).

My favorite meal there are the carnitas. The portion is large and I always have leftovers even if I get the lunch portion. Don't think I have had anything there that I haven't liked.

Service is quick and most of the servers are good, but Danielle (Dani) is the best. Always greets you with a smile and ready with whatever you need before you need it. I usually go with my best friend and she remembers our orders we normally get and it makes me feel special to know that.

The margaritas are good and the frozen ones came in large, really large to and ridiculously large sizes. So if you are in the mood to drink this is the place to do it.
I think due to its location (next to a strip mall) that many who get sketched out easily stay away but that's ok bc it means no wait for me. I see comments on the neighborhoods and often wonder what ppl see or haven't been exposed to. May not be aesthetically pleasing but it is safe and the restaurant is excellent and the food is affordable.

Give it a try.... You won't be disappointed.
